LC ES4 form in Adobe Reader DC: "MS Office Outlook does not recognize ","...*

I have a form created in Adobe Live Cycle Designer ES4 with extended rights leveraged in Acrobat Pro 11. The form uses an array to store a number of e-mail addresses. When a user selects a name in another field the e-mail address is ‘subtracted’ from the array and the e-mail is created so that it is sent ‘To’ that individual and cc’d to the remainder of the e-mail addresses in the array. The array format is var ListAddr = new Array("[email protected]", "[email protected]", [email protected])
The whole thing works very well so long as Adobe Reader 11 is used: e-mail addresses appear in Outlook with a semi-colon between the addresses. The e-mail clients used by those completing the form are either Outlook 2007 or Outlook 2010.
Eventually users will migrate to Adobe Reader DC so I have been testing the form in Reader DC in advance and am met with the message:
“Microsoft Office Outlook does not recognize “,”…”
A Google search revealed that this issue can be rectified by going to Outlook Tools -> Options -> Preferences -> E-mail options -> Advanced e-mail options and checking the box for “Allow comma as address separator”. Unfortunately doing this makes no difference. The message still appears.
This tends to point the finger at Acrobat Reader DC. Has something changed in how Reader DC handles JavaScript? Do I need Acrobat DC rather than Acrobat Pro 11 to keep my form working? Has anyone any ideas why this might happen?

The problem only appears in versions newer than 9. It should definately be something that you could configure your way out of in the trust center, but I have tried "everything" and I am afraid it is not possible.
Anybody who has a solution for this?

  • Adobe Reader 9.1.3 fr does not print text, only graphix

    I recently had a problem with windows live hotmail, removed the recently installed adobe reader usin windows removing program to test the problem with no change then reinstalled adobe reader, since i connot print any pdf  file, only the graphix is printed. I have : windows family vista french on a dell 530.

    To clarify my previous post, I had already seen http://forums.adobe.com/message/1770581 .  I mentioned in my post that I get the message "Preview not supported" when I click the Preview button from the print dialog in Adobe Reader, and thus concluded that the "Preview" workaround discussed in that thread wasn't helping me.
    However, re-reading that post, they were talking about using the Mac "Preview" application to print the pdf file.  Like every other application (other than Reader) I have tried, the Mac's Preview application prints just fine, and is another workaround.
    The only program that doesn't print for me is Adobe Reader.
    BTW, I also have an Intel chip in my MacBook Pro.
    Re-installing Leopard, as suggested by one post in that thread, is not a reasonable option for this problem.
    In fact, since Preview allows me to view and print .pdf's , my solution is probably just going to be not to use Adobe Reader.  In fact, had I not been new to the Mac, I would have known that I didn't need Adobe Reader at all.
    However, I'm glad this happened, in the sense that I use CS3 on the PC, and had considered moving to CS4 on the Mac.  However, since Adobe apparently hasn't figured out how to get printing to work on a Mac from their flagship product (!), I will be sure to do a lot of testing of CS4 before considering buying the upgrade.

  • Left for vacation 5.27: firefox was accessible / returned from vacation 5.31: message on screen reads "unable to access server", "does not recognize server"

    left for vacation 5.27: server was accessible / returned from vacation 5.31: message on screen now read: "does not recognize server" / this is for both internet & email access
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == i turned on my personal computer / this condition has remained for two days

    I realise this doesn't help you but I have reported this exact same issue (well, the part about being unable to login to webmail from abroad anyway) for MONTHS and all I get told is 'well you SHOULD be able to login'. I am no further forward and have come to the conclusion the only way to resolve this is to change ISP/phone provider.
    I had to create (and pay for) a domain with 1and1 in order to be able to send and receive e-mail while abroad, I didn't want to use Gmail or the like.
    As you say, it is INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING, especially when I work for at least 6 months of the year overseas and BT just seem to ignore these posts.

  • Adobe reader 9.1.1 script - does not seem to work with Xp Sp3 - help

    Any ideas?
    Scott

    I tried the script it seems easy enough but.  It says my Adobe Reader version is at 9.1.1 but when I go into add/remove programs the 9.1.1 update is not in there for me to add or remove.  When I click the .msp file and install it, it appeared in the add/remove programs section in control panal.  If the program says its updated, is it really updated if its not in add/remove programs?

  • I have downloaded the assistant twice.  i also downloaded the latest adobe reader, and it says it does not support this file

    How do i open the elements 12 now that i have downloaded the assistant twice and the latest adobe reader.
    It says that it cannot support this file.  what is the problem?
    before trying elements 12 i had tried elements 7, and it worked....

    Hi Janet,
    Adobe Reader is meant for reading pdf documents.
    What is the file type that you are trying to open.
    After downloading PSE 12 you need to install it to be abvle to use it.
    Does it show in the list of installed programs?
    If Yes then what error do you get when you try to launch the software.
    Also let me know which OS are you using.

  • How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text?

    How do I change the color of font in a fillable form in Adobe Reader? How can I check if the writer of the document has given permission to edit color and not just add text? Please help! I'm technologically challenged.

    Most forms (99% or more) are created for simple text input, where you cannot change anything.
    The creator of the form could allow Rich Text input (which allows you to change font, text size, color, etc.), but frankly I have never seen such a form, and I wouldn't know how they look.  But I'm sure they would show some kind of controls to alter the text appearance.

  • Filling out a form in adobe reader

    Im filling out a form in adobe reader for a scholarship. It was going well until I hit a certain section. Instead of typing the words horizontally, it was typing them vertically. Is there any easy way to fix this? I dont want to have to handwrite the entire thing.
    Thanks
    tutorben

    That's an interesting form. It looks like it started out as an XFA form that was created in LiveCycle Designer, and somehow converted to an acroform on a Mac. Whatever the process was resulted in setting the rotation on some of the field to 90 degrees. As Mike said, there's nothing you can do about it with just Reader.
    If you had Acrobat, you could set the proper rotation for the fields. If you really want to do this and don't have Acrobat, you can install the trial version of Acrobat 10. Or you could try contacting the creator of the form and get them to fix it.

  • Error Viewing Fillable PDF Forms in Adobe Reader on iPhone/iPad

    I created a fillable form on a Windows computer in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, but when I open the document from an email attachment in the Adobe Reader app on my iPhone or iPad the top have of the form is blacked out (literally the top half of the document has a black box over it).  I can't see the fields, but if I touch the screen in that area I can edit them.  However, I still cannot see anything in that area.  When I zoom in and out, sometimes the blacked out area will become visible, but when it's done adjusting the zoom levels the blacked out area covers the form again. 
    I just downloaded the Adobe Reader app today, so it's not an old version.
    I tried on an iPhone and an iPad.
    I can see the whole form when I open the attachment in Safari, but I want to be able to edit it and see all the fields.
    Any suggestions?  Am I doing something wrong?

    In case anyone else has this problem, I fixed it...
    Situation: I made the fillable form with an existing PDF document, I did not start from scratch.
    Solution: I saved the original PDF as a Word document, and then turned on the "paragraph marking" tool in Word.  This revealed that there was a text box hidden at the bottom of the document.  Once I removed the text box, I re-saved the document as a PDF and recreated the form again.  It was kind of a pain, but it solved the problem!

  • Cannot open a PDF form in Adobe Reader 7

    Hello
    I have developed a form in Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8. The form has java script embedded in it to do validations. The form has Usage Rights enabled and works well versions 8 and 9. However, when I open the form in Adobe Reader 7, I am getting an error message asking me to download a higher version. When I view the form properties in LiveCycle Designer for this form, I have the following settings:
    XDP Preview form: Acrobat 7 (static PDF form) under defaults tab.
    Under compatibility tab, I have the following settings:
    Form Type: Acrobat 8 (static PDF form)
    Text Formatting: Version 7
    Event model: Version 7.
    Much appreciate if someone could tell me how to make this form compatible with Adobe Reader 7.

    thanks Jono But I cannot see any option to set Target Version.
    the options I have are XDP Preview format and PDF Render Format which are set to Acrobat 7 static PDF form.
    I have set a permissions password on the form using Acrobat 8 and under Password security settings , I have set the compatibility as Acrobat 5.0 or later. However, When I look at the form properties by opening the same form in LiveCycle, the compatibility still shows Acrobat 8 static PDF form.
    How do I get this form to be opened by users in Adobe 7?
    Appreciate your quick response.

  • Free way to dynamically build a form that adobe reader can fill out?

    It's 2008 and we don't have a open, free way to dynamically build a pdf form that adobe reader can populate with data? Why is Adobe charging for this sort of thing? Does this make sense to anybody?

    > Why is Adobe charging for this sort of thing?
    That seems to me the way economics works. People charge for things
    that other people are prepared to pay for. It's no good trying to
    charge for things that nobody will pay for.
    >Does this make sense to anybody?
    Adobe's shareholders, I would think, who will sack Adobe's management
    if they do not make money.
    By the way, the PDF specification is open. If you want something for
    free, why not implement it and share it with the world, who will
    surely be pleased. (You will not be able to implement a form that
    Reader can save, however, this is based on trade secrets).

  • Can I save a filled out form in adobe reader

    How do I save a filled out form in adobe reader?

    When you fill out a filled out form in Adobe Reader, it is saved automatically when you quit the app (unless you crash). You could email the filled form, and it will open correctly filled out on Reader or Acrobat on Mac or Windows. (Warning: It may not look like it got filled out if you view it in Mail, Dropbox, or another iOS app, but it will appear correctly in Reader or Acrobat.)
